Netflix Originals April

Not for the first time in 2018, Netflix has an absolutely stacked April 2018 Netflix original lineup complete with both new and returning shows and movies that add up to make a great month for the service.

Below, we’ll take a look at every Netflix Original coming in April 2018 but be warned, this list is far from complete. Netflix usually announces a load more dates for additional Netflix originals throughout the month before. You can also expect a full preview of everything coming to Netflix in April 2018 in the third/fourth week of the month.

Lost In Space Netflix Reboot April

Premiering towards the middle of the month is the brand new rebooted Lost in Space. Based on the sci-fi series of the same name from the 1960’s, this series will follow a group of space colonists who are knocked off course and therefore, Lost in Space. The Robinson Family is set to include the likes of Molly Parker (House of Cards), Toby Stephens (Die Another Day), Ignacio Serricchio, Taylor Russell, Mina Sundwall, Maxwell Jenkins and Parker Posey.

We don’t yet know the number of episodes but from the trailer, we can see that no expense has been spared in the looks department with stunning visuals throughout. Netflix has also been clear that you don’t need to watch the original to understand this series.


Chef’s Table: Pastry

Netflix Release Date: April 13th, 2018

Chefs Table Pastry

The longest running Netflix Original cooking series is back with another special one-off series called Pastry. This comes after last years special series that toured France searching the best restaurants and chefs to feature. This time around, the focus is on pastries which for any baker, will be a must watch.

Not much else is known about the series such as where we’ll be visiting except one insightful commenter discovered that one of the locations will be Momofuku’s Milkbar.

Netflix Release Date: April 13th, 2018

Come Sunday Netflix

Aggretsuko (Season 1)

Netflix Release Date: April 20th, 2018

Aggretsuko

A quick challenge for you, picture anime. Now burn that image as you’re way off as to what this new original series will be delivering. The creator of Hello Kitty has a lesser-known character under his belt too which is this cute little Red Panda. Here’s the thing though, this Red Panda is working as an office associate in the accounting department of a highly respected trading company. Underappreciated, the panda takes her anger out by performing heavy metal Karaoke sessions. Does that sound Japanese enough for you?


The Week Of (Movie)

April 27th, 2018

The Week Of Netflix

2018’s Adam Sandler movie is just around the corner and features Sandler and Chris Rock. It’s coming off the back of The Meyerowitz Stories which has been cited as the best Sandler movie so far in the Netflix deal.
